The objectives of this study were to determine the phenotypic correlations among body weight and linear body parameters (LBPs) of the black and pearl guinea fowl and their crosses, as well as to derive multiple regression equations that can be used to establish models for predicting body weight. The following three genotype groups were established: Pearl male X pearl female (P X P) Homozygous pearl thorough bred line; black male X black female (B X B) Homozygous black thorough bred line and Black male X pearl female (B X P) Heterozygous crossbred line. A total of 317 guinea fowl keets were obtained and used for the study. There were 100 PXP, 118 BXB and 99 BXP keets. The coefficient of determination of body weight by linear body measurements was generally significantly (P < 0.001) high between 8 and 12 weeks of age among the genotype groups. Body circumference plus breast length were the best prediction variables in the PXP group at this period. Body circumference plus shank length were the best prediction variables in the BXB group, while the combination of body circumference with breast length and thigh length were the best prediction variables in the BXP group at this period.
The solutions of the Schrödinger equation with the Superposed Screened Coulomb plus Kratzer Fues (SSCKF) potential have been presented using the Wentzel Kramers Brillouin (WKB) approach.
The aim of this study is to assess the effort of Federal Government towards looted assets recovery in Nigeria which is a means of fighting corruption and terrorism and enhancing national development
Graphene oxide (GO) nanofiller were incorporated in PVP/PVA blend films for the preparation of nanocomposite polymer films by the solution cast method. The films were characterized using SEM, D.C and A.C and dielectric properties studies at room temperature.
The present study was carried out to investigate the toxicity of plant extracts treated on three packaging materials against two stored product insect pests, Tribolium castaneum.
